Welcome to The Spirit of the Torah from Applied Jewish Spirituality (AJS).

In every episode, Rabbi Daniel Raphael Silverstein explores insights arising from the Hebrew calendar or weekly Torah portion, and related practices that can help us to effect positive change in our lives.

Rosh Hashanah, our new year festival, has a lot to teach us about beginning, and our relationship with our own future self.

In this, our first episode, we will explore how the story of Joseph is intrinsically connected to the essence of the day, and what this can teach us about building a relationship with the person that we wish to become.
